* Otis is the debut solo album of Mojo Nixon. Released in 1990, it featured guest appearances by
* John Doe of X, Country Dick Montana (Beat Farmers), Bill Davis (Dash Rip Rock) and Eric Roscoe Ambel (The Del-Lords).
* Nixon's first album since splitting with Skid Roper, and released by Enigma Records,
* the album was seen as potentially Nixon's break-out album,
* but the record label's demise due to financial issues dashed any chance of success.
* The album includes humorous commentary on targets such as soft rock ("Don Henley Must Die"),
* the legal profession ("Destroy All Lawyers"), politics, and Shane MacGowan's teeth.
* Featuring a band of established musicians from other bands and produced by Jim Dickinson,
* the album's music was considered to be stronger than Nixon's previous releases.

* From Deke Dickerson:
* "I was really bummed when Mojo Nixon died (February 7, 2024).
* The guy has always been a hero and inspiration to me.
* I started watching a bunch of Mojo videos on YouTube and the idea came to me to do a tribute song.
* By Friday night it was written.
* Saturday I asked my neighbor and friend, X drumming legend DJ Bonebrake, to come over and record this song with me.
* Sunday I put together this video as a tribute to Mojo. Still can’t believe that he’s gone,
* but as the words of the song say, he can’t die if you REMEMBER MOJO NIXON!"
